The Lyrics
A little-known rear defense weapon tested on the Ju-88 and He-111H-16 was a rear flamethrower for aerial use!!! The Germans had invented the flamethrower prior to WW1 and used it again in WW2 to great effect against fortifications. So a firm proposed an aerial version designated FmW-51 that burned Flammol 19- light and heavy tar oil. The Ju-88 tested it first and then two Heinkels. The twin-tube system was mounted under the tail with fuel tanks ahead of the tail fin in the fuselage. Ignition was EM. The straight shot of flame was impressive but only reached 130 feet, not enough range for effective use against fighters on the bomber's Six. KG 51 used it on the Russian front with disappointing results. The program was cancelled in late 1941. Eventually, the He-177 used remote-controlled fuselage guns for rear defense...
Heinkel rear flame for use
defense time
Flammol 19 for airborne use
Twin tubes firin’
Tar oil ignitin’
No real demand for it
MGs were more sound
Mere 26 gallons
Range not enough to bring fighters down
[130 feet straight, not up nor down]
Heinkel rear flame for use
Was defense time
From ‘39
Test trials- 2
With J-U
H-E too
Failure to achieve goal
Initial scare
But lacked range in feet
Effort was bold
[Program cancelled]
Oddity
Heinkel rear flame for use
Was defense time
(1-7-7 used remote guns eventually)
